NOT ON THE CURRENT EDITION
This blip is not on the current edition of the Radar. If it was on one of the last few editions, it is likely that it is still relevant. If the blip is older, it might no longer be relevant and our assessment might be different today. Unfortunately, we simply don't have the bandwidth to continuously review blips from previous editions of the Radar. Understand more

Adopt ? We feel strongly that the industry should be adopting these items. We use them when appropriate on our projects.
Acceptance tests generally exercise the system from the ‘outside’, traversing an entire network stack for the security of exercising the complete application. In-process acceptance testing challenges the notion that test code and application under- test must run in different processes in order to achieve these benefits. When using an embedded container, it is easy to set up the system, run the tests over HTTP and to verify the final state without the setup costs associated with deploying to and communicating with a separate container.
